HC Deb 10 July 1946 vol 425 cc87-8W
100. Dr. Segal

asked the Minister of Food why the large quantities of straw berries available to passing motorists in certain parts of the country cannot be distributed also among poorer sections of the population.

Mr. Strachey

Growers are allowed to sell strawberries direct to the public only to the extent that they did so before the war. I am afraid it would be almost impossible to go further than that.
